Android O's final release is fast approaching, and Action Launcher is bringing many of O's launcher related features to current versions of Android with today's release of Action Launcher v26.0-beta1.

The highlight of the release is full notification dot support, as well as Android O style App Shortcuts UI.

Android O's revamped App Shortcuts UI is arguably a step back visually from the distinct bubbles introduced in Android 7.1, but it has key advantages, particularly as it allows for both App Shortcuts and additional controls display for an icon.

Action Launcher takes full advantage of this new UI, allowing for easy access to the Quickedit feature, to make replacing an app's icon, rename it, etc. even easier.
